Compression socks are one of the few socks that require measurements to get the correct size. Everyone’s body is different which means that it is important to measure the circumference and length of your leg to get accurate compression and the perfect fit. In previous blogs, we discussed plus sizing in compression socks and gave a list of the fan favorite plus size compression socks, stockings, and leggings. That leads us here to talking about petite compression garments.

You will need a petite size if your lower leg measures less than 16 inches from the bend of your knee to the floor. It is important to remember that different brands have different sizing. Correlate your measurements to the size chart of the brand and product you are looking at before ordering. When measuring for your compression garments, be sure to measure first thing in the morning before any swelling has the chance to occur. 

Remember that many compression socks are unisex, so you may see a photo of the opposite gender when shopping online. View a complete list on men's petite and women's petite.
